2 Esdras 2:40-48

40 Take thy number, O Zion, and shut up those of thine that are clothed in white, who have fulfilled the law of the Lord.
41 The number of thy children whom thou longed for is fulfilled; beseech the power of the Lord, that thy people who have been called from the beginning may be hallowed.
42 I, Ezra, saw upon the Mount Zion a great people whom I could not number, and they all praised the Lord with songs.
43 And in the midst of them there was a young Man of a high stature, taller than all the rest, and upon every one of their heads He set crowns, and was more exalted, which I marveled at greatly.
44 So I asked the angel and said, "Sir, who are these?"
45 He answered and said unto me, "These be they that have put off the mortal clothing and put on the immortal, and have confessed the name of God. Now are they crowned and receive palms."
46 Then said I unto the angel, "What young person is it who crowneth them, and giveth them palms in their hands?"
47 So he answered and said unto me, "It is the Son of God, whom they have confessed in the world." Then began I greatly to commend those who stood so firmly for the name of the Lord.
48 Then the angel said unto me, "Go thy way, and tell my people what manner of things and what great wonders of the Lord thy God thou hast seen."
